There are. I understand. a few placvs in the world where Provincial taxation is unknown --Eskimo-land, for instance. and the African jungles. But I doubt whether mlny of our citizens would care to live there mnrvly to Avoid the tax collector. This constitutes most of Ontario's direct taxa- tion; and even some of that can be avoided if you don't bet on the ponies or dabble in the stock murket. On the whole, don't you think we people of Ontario are pretty lucky people? Premier Henry put the matter in a nut-shell when he said. in the course of his budget sprtrehr - “In regard to revenue, the hnnm‘ahle members of the Opposition try to give the people of Ontario the idea that they are suffering under a heavy burden. This Kovornment is not a taxing body to any great extent. Rather are we a seller of Her- vices. It is a matter of significance that the revenues obtained are chiefly from these services --luxurieg which the people do not have to purchase unless they want to. Out of the 51 millions we col- lected in revenue last year, only about five millions can be attributed to direct taxation." There are people in this province who think that the province is taxing them to death; and Mr. Hepburn is careful to foster that idea. Just what provincial taxes do they have to pay? Not one in a hundred could answer the question. Let us see. then, exactly where We stand in this matter. In 1933, the Ontario Gm'or‘inwnt volleeted $22,037.- MR.81 in taxes. That monuy was derived in the lollow- in: nmounts from the following sources:-- 1. LAND TAX-tttttpM/m: R levy of ID? on assvssod values, with a minimum of$'d.00 per parcel: on land in unorganized districts. 2. MINING TAX~$744,000.31. This comprises an acrenge tax of 5 cents per acre on all mining claims of over 10 acres; a grnduated tax, ranging from 3 per cent, up to 7 per cent, on the annual profits of every mine in Ontario over' $10,000 and up to 815,- 000,000; and I tax of 2 cents on every thousand feet of natural gas flowing, drawn, pumped or pro- duced in Ontario, with a rchatv of 50 per cent. on the gas used in Canada. on those citizens who can afford to indulge in pleasures and luxuries. Ontario is the most lightly taxed province in the Dominion. In proportion to size, waith. popula- tion. and the benefits derived. she has paid less for her progress than any other nuinnomy under the British flag. And here is I Net which few people realize: that most of the taxes we pay do not have to be paid at all unless we use the services offered us. XATION. debt, expenditure. are words heard many I times in every political contest. Sometimes sane, mible informed diaeusaion is heard. . Usually. extravagunt utterances and violent denunciation takes the place of reasoned exposition and just argument. At the present time there are more than the ordinary amount of reckless assertion. One unfamiliar with the practices of political parthnns would be liable to con. clude that the Henry Administration was composed of men whose only thought was how to place additional burdens on the shoulders of a suffering people. But moat people attach little importance to the reckless utterances of politicians over anxious for power. They agree with the late Hon. W. S Fielding that "wise expenditure is true economy." and do not allow them- tselves to be misled. Ontario levies little direct taxation; must of it is in- direct; Bnd it is so apportioned that the bulk of it falls on the broadest shoulders-on Cum“. on Corporations, and Mr. Rm in be.“ rebukod by the Lihenl pm” And by prominent men of the party for the -ranted myth and: upon mpomlbhe and hononbh citizens.
